FAQ
- What does AI citation share on this market measure?
- It measures how often an actor's domain appears as a cited source inside AI Overview answers across the market's observed query panel. It does not measure who opens AI answers, nor does it reflect organic search ranking.
- Can this card establish a longer-term trend?
- No. This card observes an observation period of 7 comparable scheduled runs from October 19–25, 2026. AI Overview content is volatile by nature — it varies by query, model, and date. A single window does not establish a multi-month trajectory.
- Why do two platforms lead the AI Overview citation panel on a luxury villa rental market?
- This card observes what AI Overviews cite, not why. The governed panel shows youtube.com at 13.66% and instagram.com at 13.47% AI citation share on this market. The card does not explain the model's source-selection logic.
